SEPTEMBER 13, 2007: PRESS RELEASE


Turn the Stress of a Career Search into a Life-Defining Transformation

"To get the position of your dreams, can you really win without competing? You bet you can. Applying Dr. Arlene Barro's Right Fit Method to your work setting, your career, and even to your personal life is not only possible, it's the only way to ensure success. Dr. Barro's expert advice, combined with her entertaining storytelling, makes WIN WITHOUT COMPETING! a 'must read' for everyone who yearns for a deeply satisfying and meaningful professional and personal life. Whether you're an employee, employer, or an entrepreneur, you'll be fascinated by this 'page tumer' full of real-life stories demonstrating that the good guys can indeed finish first." --Patti Rager, Former Chairman, Nursing Spectrum, a division of Gannett Company, Inc.
 
Washington, DC (PRWEB) September 13, 2007 -- "I never concern myself with which position is 'best' for a candidate, or which candidate is 'best' for a particular employer," says top search consultant and career coach, Dr. Arlene Barro in her new book, WIN WITHOUT COMPETING! Career Success the Right Fit Way.

Dr. Barro, who has successfully matched candidates and employers for more than ten years, discloses to readers her Right Fit Method in this life-defining career guide, showing new graduates, back-to-work job seekers, and anyone who wants to move up--how to become their own career-strategy expert, to discover for which position they are exactly suited, and to set a personal standard against which no other candidate can compete to capture that particular position.

"My mission for WIN WITHOUT COMPETING! was to write much more than a 'how to' find the right position (or candidate). My goal is to teach job-seekers how to set a standard against which no one else can compete," says Dr. Barro. "My sole professional concern has always been finding an exquisite fit between candidate and employer--like the interlocking pieces of a puzzle. Now my book teaches job-seekers and HR professionals how to use my Right Fit Method to do this for themselves."

In an engaging, compassionate, and no-nonsense style, Dr. Barro gives her readers insights into the hiring strategies of employers and shares true-life, stories of candidates she has fit perfectly into their ideal positions. She also debunks outmoded career-search notions: "For example, job-seekers do not have to send their resumes to thousands of HR departments," she says. Instead, she describes how to "shape, sell, and share your 'personal brand'--the compelling professional identity you present--only to the employer you know is right for you."

Dr. Barro shows the readers how to "win without competing" by expressing the totality of who they are and what they have to offer the right, fortunate, employer.

Dr. Barro's Right Fit Method is also designed to save human resource professionals and employers time and money by not hiring "wrong fits,"--eliminating the need to fire and rehire. WIN WITHOUT COMPETING! describes how to interview only candidates who match their specifications and will be a long-term "right fit."

WIN WITHOUT COMPETING! is a win-win investment for both employers and candidates, says Dr. Barro. And one of the best investments either of them can make.

Turns the Stress of a Career Search into
a Life-Defining Transformation

WIN Without Competing! Career Success the RIGHT FIT Way

“Over two years, I hired 40 candidates in three countries from Dr. Barro, my exclusive search consultant . . .I couldn’t believe that almost every candidate she presented to me was, in fact, the Right Fit. I didn’t need to see lots of candidates and select the ‘best’ among them, and I saved an enormous amount of time . . .The quality and character of the hires matched my blueprint for growth plans extremely well.” —Tom Lombardo, Founding Editor-In-Chief, WebMD, from the foreword

Advance Praise for WIN WITHOUT COMPETING!

“To get the position of your dreams, can you really win without competing? You bet you can. Applying Dr. Arlene Barro’s Right Fit Method to your work setting, your career, and even to your personal life is not only possible, it’s the only way to ensure success. Dr. Barro’s expert advice, combined with her entertaining storytelling, makes Win Without Competing! a ‘must read’ for everyone who yearns for a deeply satisfying and meaningful professional and personal life.

—Patti Rager, Former Chairman, Nursing Spectrum, a division of Gannett Company, Inc.


 “Dr. Arlene Barro’s new book, Win Without Competing!, makes the many secrets of her proven method readily available for recruitment professionals, and, believe me, they really work. While consulting with Dr. Barro on numerous executive searches, I discovered how defining the sole Right Fit candidate for each open position could eliminate the need to hire on gut instinct from a wide pool of candidates. Employing her Right Fit Method, we have dramatically reduced screening time, and are proud of our one hundred percent retention rate of the stellar candidates her method brought to us. I highly recommend that HR professionals apply the principles detailed in Dr. Barro’s book to all their hiring needs.”

—Virgil Holder, Director of Employment Services, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Memphis, Tennessee


“Far more than a ‘how-to’ book, Win Without Competing! is an almost Zen-like approach to that most dreaded of all occupations, the job search.  Instead of focusing on what the other applicant has to offer, Arlene Barro suggests looking inside in a self-analysis that culminates with the discovery of your “core identity.”  Once you know who you are, it's a much shorter, more efficient trip to success and self-realization.  In essence, with the Barro method, you’re re-recreating yourself as the ‘perfect fit’ for the position. Ergo, you have no competition.  In addition to her own inspirational style, Dr. Barro provides a number of compelling anecdotes about life on the career carousel, illustrating winning tactics with a few cautionary tales sprinkled in about careers that crashed on the launch pad.  From the fine-tuned résumé to the appropriately firm handshake during the job interview, Dr. Barro covers it all with keen intelligence and good humor.” 

—Jeff Levine, Former CNN Correspondent, Senior Vice President, Hill & Knowlton Public Relations
